Me and my friends travel on a budget and like this place bc of walkablilty to some bars and restaurants a coffee shop and a beach. Our room had nice queen beds with very nice quilts and a big window you can actually open and get the ocean breeze. The bathroom is nice but they have overheard showerheads which is inconvenient. Also the floor was really dirty and gave us Kmart feet. Cleanliness was otherwise good.

Despite the parking being limited, it’s super cute and pretty quiet inside the room for being right next to Pacific 1. I slept like a baby. I’d definitely return.

Room was relatively clean- though there was some hair in the bathtub/shower. It smelled like cleaning chemicals a bit, so at least it was clear they did clean the room. The inn is right on the highway, so you really can’t walk anywhere-seems like it would be dangerous to try to walk to the beach/water. Parking was great-lots of available spots, didn’t have to worry about finding a place to park. THERE IS NO ELEVETOR. I didn’t mind much, but if you have trouble walking, or climbing stairs, don’t stay here. No working vending machines on site, they are all broken. It felt a little sketchy, but it was fine for the short stay I had here. Overall not terrible. Probably wouldn’t stay here again, but I’ve definitely stayed at worse hotels over the years. 2* is about right.

Beware the nail.

We stayed there for only two nights and as other comments have stated yes the floors were not cleaned regularly. However worst for me was in my 326. A nail head was sticking out of the floor. You can see in the photo it's just sticking out. It was located just as the entryway Hall transitioned into the bedroom area. You can kind of see in the photo. The bed was a little on the firm side but it was still soft enough for me to sleep as a side sleeper. The place was a little noisy at certain times. The shower nozzle coming out of the ceiling was a little weird. I had never seen that in a place before. It's not a deal-breaker but someone might like to know. It was nice close to the beach. There is no elevator and rooms are only on the second and third floor. So be prepared to climb stairs if you get the third floor. A lot of stairs
